TheDevilMan is 99% sure he did not use the DC given to him by GWAC & is supposed to get back to me.

B. Shouldn't it take ten seconds to find out if you redeemed the code or not?

C. I don't remember if I have codes to share today or not.

Too bad. Apparently today is his 2 year old's birthday but at least he still has WWZ on iTunes then and as I said before you can stream it without downloading by hooking a laptop to your TV and playing the film through iTunes.

I had a crazy day and so i'm just now getting caught up here. This actually seems a little hurtful. This is going to seem like a ton to post over such a tiny thing. But i just want to clear it up now so no one makes any false assumptions. I am very appreciative of this place and say it a lot. But want to clear this up completely.

A. 99% is as sure as almost anyone can get about anything. (I take a scientific approach on most things.) And 99% is pretty damn sure.

B. I was not home most of the day. All of my messaging was done via crappy cell phone until i got home and was too late.

Vader was amazing for offering it to me but just to clear things up...

With Vader's permission, here is one of the messages i sent him that i think clears everything up. I am sad that i feel i need to post this, though.

We were super busy today so it took just a little longer than i had thought. Had a football game for my oldest son at 8am, then a soccer game for the middle child, then photos for the birthday girl, then shopping for the party, then home to set up, then the party.

I asked it it was ok in my first reply and was watching my phone for the ok. Since no email notifications came through with a reply, i thought i was good for while.

Anyhow, not that it is a big deal. It was just important to me that you know that i wasn't blowing you off. I was half super busy and delayed, and half waiting for a reply with the ok.

In any case, it's too late now. But it's all good and i really appreciate you thinking of me.

Oh, our old laptop doesn't have hdmi. I usually use it to redeem codes on and the kids use it to watch movies on sometimes. When we watch movies with the whole family, though, we have to use the old desktop computer in my office that i use for work. I normally keep iTunes off of the desktop but will re-install it for these occasional times. I have to unhook the whole thing and bring into the living room. And the computer doesn't always recognize the TV as a valid video output which means 10-30 minutes of dinking around to get the video to show on the TV, lol. It's a bit of a pain but it works when we have no other options. Whereas the Xbox has Flixster and Vudu. That's why i go for UV but take iTunes if i don't have another option.

Again, i am still thrilled that we have any version at all. Just explaining so you knew that it wasn't that we just like UV more. Just a difficult setup.

Sorry for the long explanation. It's just important to me that you know i wasn't blowing you off and that i wasn't just being picky about iTunes vs UV.

I really do thank you very much for thinking of me. I guess i should have just communicated better. Sorry about that.

Oh if you mean TheDevilMan I've been messaging him back and forth literally 10 times now. He's just trying to clear up what people on the thread might have thought about him.My updates were clear as to what he messaged me earlier so not really much more to say on my part. I gave Sarahroo first call, him second, he said he wanted the uv but I placed it on the condition that he offered up the Unused DC given to him by GWAC which he was 99% sure he hadn't used. He then said he'd get back to me in 1 or 2 hours. He was given 3 hours. That plus the fact that he already had a code for it and my continual postings on outhouse caused me to then passover him which only seemed logical given the circumstances and the fact I gave him more time then asked for.Not much more I can sayA bit too much drama for giving away codes makes me feel as though I'm on the other forum......

dINGO

We're more than all good. I was thrilled just to be considered. I just wanted everyone else to know what the dealio was so no one made any false assumptions.

When i feel like there was less than ideal communication and i was responsible, i just want to clear things up quickly. Not meant to be drama. I just tend to over-clarify just to be safe. Especially when the miss-communication was my fault.
